US Immigration from Canada

Hi everyone!

First time poster here. Had my interview yesterday in Montreal and was put into administrative processing with no reason given. The consular officer even admitted he did not know why it was happening. I'm still awaiting the follow-up email from the consulate... I suspect it will the DS-5535 questions because we used to live abroad but have lived in Canada for 8+ years.

We are planning to cross the land border and drive from Toronto to Maine (my US citizen spouse has a family cottage there). I have a second passport (UK citizenship) and we are hoping I can cross using that passport as Montreal still have my Canadian passport. We've called the CBP and the actual border office (Buffalo, NY) and have received positive yet not totally clear messages.

Has anyone else attempted this in the past? Thanks in advance!

Got DQ today and now thinking about everything that's about to transpire in the next few months.

Any recommendations on how to get my stuff from Canada to USA?

Hi guys,

Does anyone have experience with this situation? My husband, who is a green card holder, applied for my green card (F2A category) back in 2019. I recently got scheduled for an interview at the Montreal Consulate end of July, but during this time, I've given birth to our child.

What do I do now and how do I add my child to my application?

Many thanks for anyone that might have some insight on this. I'm surprised this isn't more of a common issue since the wait times are so long these days!

Best,

Lily

Hi folks,

Has anyone here that has recently been "in transit" from NVC to MTL remember how long it was "in transit for"?

I know its something that's not really looked at , but thought maybe someone would have some insight.. Ive been in transit for almost 2 weeks now. And I don't know if that's because my IR2 is still at NVC waiting to be DQ.

anybody know if police certificate needs to be the one with fingerprint? I submitted the one without fingerprint. Release of Results of criminal record check. I can add it as additional document, i guess, one with fingerprint but nervous it will push back my timeline
